WPCNR POLICE GAZETTE. Special to WPCNR from Inspector Daniel Jackson, White Plains Department of Public Safety. January 20, 2006: The White Plains Police have announced the arrests of two burglary suspects possibly responsible for as many as 19 burglaries in the White Plains area. Inspector Daniel Jackson provides these details to WPCNR in this report:
Yesterday afternoon, Police Officer Joseph Meidreich observed two subjects
standing on Lake Street near Canfield. He recognized the subjects from
police flyers of two subjects wanted in connection with a number of
burglaries in White Plains as well as throughout Westchester, Fairfield,
and the Bronx. He called other units who responded and assisted. The
subjects were stopped and subsequently arrested in connection with the
crimes.
They were Serdrick Watson 36 years old from Brooklyn and Erick Cruz 38
years old, also from Brooklyn, the subjects were in the possession of
proceeds from three burglaries that they had just committed on Lake
Street that had not yet been reported.
They have been charged with 5 burglaries in White Plains and may be
responsible for as many as 14. We expect further charges on both. We
have been working with a number of other departments including Yonkers
and New York City on these investigations.
We executed 4 search warrants last night with the other departments and
have recovered a large amount of what we believe is stolen property. We
will now begin the long process of identifying the property and working
with the other departments on resolving as many cases as possible.
Both subjects have long extensive criminal histories. We were fortunate
that the subjects were apprehended before anyone was physically injured.
The subjects will be arraigned in White Plains Court this afternoon.
Inspector Daniel Jackson.
